So yeah, I'm only 18 and I have dark circles darker than either of my parents (who don't have any funnily enough). What products can I use to get rid of them?

Hi Hermes
Here is the answer.
Hydration for Resplendent Skin
Nicholas V. Perricone MD - "We must drink eight to 10 glasses of pure water a day. Diet sodas and coffee don’t count, though I’m allowing tea (green or black) as part of the 8 to 10 daily glasses. When we decrease inflammation in the body, the brain works better, mood is elevated, skin becomes more radiant, dark circles and puffiness under the eyes resolve, skin becomes more toned, and even fine lines can diminish. We must remember that the skin is a reflection of our internal health. Therefore, if our skin improves, all other vital organs also improve. This decreases our risk of every disease from which we suffer." Nicholas V. Perricone MD, is the author of “The Wrinkle Cure.”
Batmanghelidji MD - "Drinking water enables the skin to better shed toxins and thus keeps it cleaner. When the skin is dehydrated it cannot shed toxins from the body and skin rashes or breakouts can occur. Use 1/4 tsp. of sea salt for every quart of water you drink. Use a good sea salt, one with at least 80 minerals, liberally with food. As long as you drink the water, you can use the salt. Some put it in their water, some lick it off their hand, some season their foods after cooking. It's up to you. Make sure you take potassium daily (banana, orange juice,etc) "
Best of health to you
Cheers

I've heard many times that to get rid of dark circles under the eyes that you must drink water. Drinking water is the answer to getting rid of the dark eyes. 8 to 10 cups a day should do it.

Invest in a good eye cream or use natural products like chilled cucumber slice or used tea bags.. but it will take some time to lighten the dark circiles. There's ain't any fast cure to this though...

if you've tried all of the other remedies and they still don't work (they never did for me) have your sister or girlfriend go to a beauty retail store and buy "daily radiance facial glow" it's a moisturizer that has a touch of fake bake in it and within a week you'll see a big difference..also evens out your skin tone and makes you look healthy. Easiest to find at Sally's Beauty Supply about $6 a bottle and it lasts forever

Well, make sure you're getting adequate sleep first of all. If you still have darkness you could try sleeping with a mask (over your eyes) at night. You could also try tea bags and/or cucumbers on your eyes while relaxing in a bath.

Get more sleep. I had what look liked black eyes and they only went away once I got more sleep and stopped shift work.

Concealer will cover them up. Get plenty of rest and they won't appear as dark.
